  • Apple to unveil AI-enabled Safari browser alongside new operating systems

    davidmalcolmdavidmalcolm
    I’d love a feature that automatically recognizes when people have gone to a scam website. There’s a few easy things that could be done. Check for any UI elements that seem to be flashing, or changing in size to confuse the user. Have the browser check the page for terms like virus, compromised, Apple Security (when not on a website known for talking about Apple or security). There are an increasing number of scams targeting seniors and a lot of them rely on the fact that seniors often browse the web in full screen mode and when you’re in full screen mode, it can be very difficult for elderly people to figure out how to get out and so they’ll often get sucked in to calling the scammers.

  • European Commission grills Apple and Google on app store risks and ad practices

    They should also be asking Apple to explain to them how this requirement that they allow Epic and all these other companies to set up their own third party app stores is going to make iOS a security nightmare compared to how it is now.

  • Senator Warren wades into Apple's Beeper fight with irrelevant antitrust rhetoric

    davidmalcolmdavidmalcolm
    Warren has some good positions on some things, but she seems to think that you can’t become a big player without abusive business practices. 

    Apple may not be perfect but they’re better than everyone else in big tech. 

    iMessage has a ton of security stuff going on on the back end that Warren doesn’t understand. And that’s a shame senators should want to learn about complicated things like security, but she clearly doesn’t.

  • Google's RCS messaging is coming to iPhone in 2024

    davidmalcolmdavidmalcolm
    I’m a little surprised by this, but wouldn’t be surprised if this was Apple’s way of getting around the EU’s gate keeper law, they’ll just say messages supports RCS therefore if RCS meets the EU’s requirement so does the messages app.

    What is an M3 Mac going to do what the current ones don't? 
    Be supported for two more years.
    With Sonoma, Apple just dropped support for the Intel iMacs that came out in 2017 which means the oldest iMacs that can run Sonoma are the 2019 models which is kind of insane.
